The Hattori Hanzo Shears HHV is a natural wet/dry hybrid shear we developed with high-carbon dry cutting steel. We call it a “hybrid shear” because while it has outstanding dry cutting properties, it has the blade design of a narrow, precision wet cutting shear. The Mamba truly is the best of both worlds. With a handle reminiscent of classic Sassoon handles, the HHV is constructed with a slight offset and a minor rounded thumb to increase comfort and control. A small whip tang is also a strategic part of the design with the freestyle cutter in mind. The tang allows the user to manipulate the position of the shear in their hands with ease. The Mamba comes in a wide variety of sizes. It is also the only shear Hanzo makes in a 4.5” inch configuration for the true Sassoon short scissor enthusiast in mind. HHV sizing starts at 4.5” inches and goes up to 6.5” inches–distributed by half-inch sizes.

As the Mamba is one of our most versatile shears, we provide this in a left-handed configuration. Left-handed barbers and stylists can find that configuration listed as the Hattori Hanzo Shears HHVL.
